Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) Go to http://apollo.sese.asu.edu/METRIC_PREVIEW/AS15-M-0081/AS15-M-0081.html 2) Click "Large PNG, 8.8 m/p (251 MB)" Actual Results: I see the first line/lines of pixels and then Firefox crashes. Expected Results: Load the image.
Firefox 3 alpha 6 says the image contains errors and it doesn't crash.
Can you get a stacktrace for the crash? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Talkback

Summary: crash if I open large PNG (see url) → crash if I open large PNG [XError calls exit on "BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)"]
On a mac with Firefox 2.0.0.9, I get the same behaviour. The two bugs referenced above were reported on Linux with GTK, so I am a bit puzzled. I attach a test-case png which always kills firefox on my mac as well as on Linux when trying to zoom in. A stack trace is also included. The command line spits out this: /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/run-mozilla.sh: line 424: 9222 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"} Is this a bug in Apples rendering? Safari shows the picture nicely...
Sorry, just realized the PNG is too large to show. Try this url: http://www.sanger.ac.uk/cgi-bin/software/analysis/logomat-m.cgi?pfamid=PF04735
benjamin: file a new bug. this bug is *only* for Gtk. Your crash in apple's code could either be a bug in apple's code, or a bug in some of our mac code, but it needs to be tracked differently.
I see this bug using Ubuntu 8.04, using FF3 and FF2, at these places: a) the URL in comment 7 b) http://www.howtoforge.com c) attachment 310818 [details] (a wide PNG taken from howtoforge.com) d) http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/ I initially posted about this in bug 369971 comment 24 through 37, but I'm directing further info to this bug page, because what I'm seeing is Linux-specific and PNG-specific. If it matters, my libgtk2.0-0 package is version 2.0-0_2.12.9-2ubuntu1
Daniel, bug 424333 now has a patch for trunk too... does that help?
Nope. I tested attachment 310818 [details] (evil howtoforge PNG) along with attachment 310964 [details] (gif that crashes FF, from bug 424333) and they both still crash (thought the gif takes ~5 seconds)
Oops -- I think I was running the wrong build when I posted comment 11. I just tested it with the patch correctly applied, and while the patch *does* fix attachment 310964 [details] (gif from bug 424333) on my machine, it doesn't fix attachment 310818 [details] or howtoforge.com or tech.yahoo.com/blogs.
Here's a stack trace I caught in GDB for the linux crash on attachment 310818 [details]. If I continue from this point, I immediately hit the _Xerror call.
I can actually scale the howtoforge image down to 8189px wide and still produce the crash. (but at 8188px wide, we don't crash) Then, keeping the 8189px width, I can also scale it vertically down to 2px tall and still produce the crash. (but at 1px, or at 2px by 8188px, we don't crash) So what's the significance of 8189px? It's *almost* 2^13: 2^13 = 8192 = 8189 + 3 So I think we're hitting some byte-count boundary, or something... e.g. if we're hypothetically using 4 bits per pixel of width, that puts us at 8188 * 4 = 32752 = (2^15 - 16) => no crash 8189 * 4 = 32756 = (2^15 - 12) => crash so we could be dealing with a signed 16-bit number (i.e. 15 bits of value) which is offset by 16 for some reason, and which is overflowing & causing the crash.
Here's a black 2px-high 8189px-wide PNG which crashes both Firefox 2 and trunk builds. (per my last comment)
For convenience, here's that last testcase as a data-url: http://preview.tinyurl.com/398gxr
Requesting blocking1.9, as this affects trunk (along with branch) and seems fairly serious.
Flags: blocking1.9?
Comment on attachment 312172 [details] reduced PNG testcase (crashes firefox on some systems) On my laptop, which is also running Ubuntu 8.04, I only get the crash with the URL from comment 7 -- not with the reduced testcase, the howtoforge.com site, or the tech.yahoo.com/blogs site.

Swapping this based on roc's comments -- it's not a regression, but we should fix it at some point.

same issue with www.directnet.com (quite critical, it's for Credit Suisse online banking)
In 1.8, it's handled here: nsresult nsImageGTK::Init(PRInt32 aWidth, PRInt32 aHeight, PRInt32 aDepth, nsMaskRequirements aMaskRequirements) { [snip] // X Protocol limits us to image dimensions less than 32767 // unless we want to go through lots of pain and suffering. if (aWidth > SHRT_MAX || aHeight > SHRT_MAX) return NS_ERROR_FAILURE; [snip] }

The patch in attachment 381814 [details] [diff] [review] in bug 424333 fixes this bug (and duplicates) for me.
Depends on: 424333
Should this bug be closed then, or is there something still remaining here?
Nothing remaining here besides the issues in bug 424333 as far as I know.
